Michal Dole¿al was asked about the Poles’ equipment. A disarming reaction

Piotr Majchrzak: What happened with Kamil Stoch during the Saturday qualifications?

Michal Dole¿al: just run out. The qualifying jump was even better than the training jump. Even after qualifying, Stoch entered the cloakroom smiling. He himself said he felt as if someone had put a burden on his back. The weak jump was therefore due to conditions.

What are Kamil Stoch’s general feelings? One can get the impression that the Olympic facility suits him.

– Yes, from the first jump Yields really even jumps with a little difference in technique. If he jumps like that on Sunday, then we can count on much more.

We looked at Stoch’s jump in qualifying and we were a bit concerned that he was skewed in flight just outside the threshold. It was an old bug known from the 4-Hills-Tournament?

– Moments ahead of Kamil About 4 m / s. But with Kamil it suddenly turned to the side wind. It was already a strong wind and it is difficult to fly straight in such conditions. It was not a mistake. Previously, they were due to technology and mistakes in the access position, but now everything is fine.

If you were to judge which Pole is in the best shape, what would your private classification look like?

– We can see that Kamil is jumping the most even and is at the best disposition. Piotrek and Dawid do not stick out much. But I would have Peter in second and David in third. But the competition is only on Sunday, we’ll see how it goes.

We look at the wind with horror. Can we have a sensational Olympic champion on Sunday?

– The forecast for Sunday is much better. We will see, but we will hear that the wind should blow a maximum of 3 m / s. It would be good for the champion to be selected under just conditions.

What is the situation with the shoes? Which ones will you be competing in at the Olympics and is there a chance to use the new, protested footwear at the Olympics?

“Now we are going to use old, ordinary shoes that are no different from those of Raas.

In qualifying, the white-and-reds showed up in lime suits. Even Dawid Kubacki, who has not used them so far, jumped in them. Will these be the final costumes for the competitions?

– You will see on Sunday (Doleż will smile eloquently).

Are you still preparing a surprise? Because you recently made a little confusion in Willingen.

– I will not cheat. But it is always so, that if someone makes a jump and someone has new equipment, the rivals get worried and discussions start. This is part of the game. Unfortunately, we couldn’t keep jumping in our new shoes. But the shoes did not give that much, the most important thing was the disposition. As for our novelties, we are unlikely to be surprised by anything. It has been enough lately and you cannot make anti-advertising by jumping. You have to fight fair in the established rules.
